That's true Barb - however I suspect the honesty was the liquor talking. smirk I'm thinking sober Valerie would have kept her mouth shut about that on the first date - but heck who knows and I didn't stick around long enough to find out!

So tonight is my 4th date with Ms. Vicky. Our first three outings have been very low key and basically learning about each others lives. She is a very nice person and we seem to have similar values. She is a lawyer and has four kids 3 of whom are in college and one graduating from high school this year. What has been missing so far, at least for me, is the chemistry thing. While I would love for it to be there instantly on the first date it doesn't have to be and that's why I'm continuing to see her. However, I am hoping it presents itself soon or I think we will simply be stuck in the friend zone.

New to the picture (yes it's still "raining women" here in the DC area - so if nothing else I am getting my money's worth on Match) is Lauren and Barbara (unfortunately it isn't the previous Barbara). Lauren is pretty damn attractive and a very active woman who loves to travel (all of which I like). She is currently out hiking in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. She wants to get together sometime next week once she returns. I don't know alot about the new Barbara as she has just contacted me, however her profile speaks to several things that interest me so we shall see about setting up a first get together.

This weekend I am heading to "The Big House" and no I don't mean prison! Taking my two lovely teenage daughters to Ann Arbor, Michigan to see the University of Michigan Wolverines play football. I haven't been to a football game there since I was a freshman in college so I'm pretty excited about it! Heck perhaps I'll get lucky and run into Beth my old college girlfriend and we'll fall madly in love and I can bid my final adieu to Match.com! grin
